Darnel is shopping for a new bike. The bike store has a purple bike that costs $1,616.00 and an orange bike that costs $1,170.00. How much more does the purple bike cost than the orange bike?

Answer 1

To find out how much more the purple bike costs than the orange bike, you subtract the cost of the orange bike from the cost of the purple bike:

\[ \text{Cost of purple bike} - \text{Cost of orange bike} = 1616.00 - 1170.00 \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ 1616.00 - 1170.00 = 446.00 \]

Thus, the purple bike costs $446.00 more than the orange bike.
